SOC 1139 (75% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £74,700, and Amazon is a licensed sponsor. That is our reading of the rules. Whether they issue a Certificate of Sponsorship is still their call.
This could also be SOC 2440 (Business and financial project management professionals, Project/programme management focus with data analysis and stakeholder management) or SOC 1243 (Managers in logistics, Role sits within Amazon Transportation Service logistics team). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
About the role
Our Programme Managers are always thinking about the bigger picture. Every position at Amazon offers the opportunity for employees to influence business decisions and shape the future.

You’ll conduct your own research and analysis, always with an eye on the long-term vision of the business.

You’ll encourage and support your teams and colleagues to meet important deliverables, while proactively looking for new, data-backed ways we could do things better. Your work will be integral to your team’s success.
